AnyCo is a US consumer product company enjoying broad distribution and dominant market share in its domestic market. An opportunity exists to penetrate and perhaps dominate an offshore market, PseudoLand, worth an estimated $20 million in sales per year. Domestically, however, each dollar of revenue consistently produces the following income statement (P/L):
Sales$1.00
Delivered Cost of Goods .55
Gross Profit$ .45
Selling Expns .06
General & Admin Expns .30
Operating Profit$ .09
AnyCo has already begun exporting to PseudoLand and, as expected, commissions (selling expenses) are higher overseas. AnyCo’s board of directors is committed to maintaining the company’s current capital costs, and is attracted to this opportunity because it returns nearly the same operating profit (as a % of sales) as its current business in the US. However, the company’s managers want to diversify the offshore distribution strategy in order to maximize penetration. Three modes of distribution have been identified:
Through research, Anyco has come to believe that the current export company can, at best, effect 50% penetration of the PseudoLand marketplace. The internet could add an additional 20%. A local distribution company would be a bit more powerful, capturing as much as 30%. Selling expenses are 7% for the export company and 4% over the internet. However, the local distributor has balked at Anyco’s standard 6% commission, and is demanding 10%. Negotiations with the local distributor look inevitable.
how to determine the best alternative to a negotiated agreement (BATNA) and a reservation sales commission above which, the company would walk away without an agreement?
Dont know how to do the number? what are some guidelines or ways to start this case?
